Oliver: Night Is On My Mind
The music we tweeted this week and the debut of our weekly #PrivateJam
An elderly man in light-up sneakers pushing a cart filled with classic ’80s gadgets nearly steals the limelight in Oliver’s video for “Night Is On My Mind,” the LA-based duo’s “after-midnight anthem” from their new Fool’s Gold EP Mechanical. The downtempo number consists of one continuously repeated lyric, letting you sink into the Giorgio Moroder-like musical atmosphere as you watch a bodacious model sporting nipple lasers emerge from the cart and join the man in dancing in the street. The darker retro sound is an interesting shift from their earlier disco hit “All Night.” To see some serious funk live, catch Oliver with Zedd and Alex Metric on tour this fall.
